I just read that. I do not understand the point of his tweet. Does he not understand what causes investors to react?

Not really. He hasn't been much on investing in the market.

Like a lot of people posting here who have nothing in the market but giving opinion to those who do.

Well -- as President of the USA he should either shut up or learn.

The rest of us are on some silly message board......we aren't running the country.

Allow me to again point out how you ignore accuracy and facts to mislead and misrepresent.

Unfortunately, relative to their age, the average person has very little saved and/or invested for retirement.
